secured in position. by means of an angle piece L, the. same bein secured to the pan and .to a convenient portion of the crank casing. As previously stated herein, while the pan protects the oil receptacle, and is constructed and arranged for that purpose,

it also prevents mud, and dirt from reaching and injuring other exposed parts, such as the pet-cocks shown in Figs. and In'explaining the mode of operation of this invention, let it be assumed that the float m in the oil gage H is in its highest position due to a full charge of oil in the crank case, the high level otwhich will be indicated by means of the ribbon 'at'tael to the float andiextending into the glass 1*: on the dash G.

It will be noted that the of its rearward extent protects not only the oil gage H, but, also, the gage cocks C and D of the crank case. I do not limit my invention to any particular form of oil gage or crank case, but have shown a Ford inotor casing-as best illustrating the invention set out. Y v

Having now described this invention and explained the mode of its operation,-what I claim is p 1. In a motor the combination with an ing a portion extending downwardly lower thanthe remainder of the casing, a pan passing oontignously beneath the said portion of'thecasing, the said pan having a front wall extending upwardly in front of and adjacent to the said downwardly extending portion of the casing, the said pan oiler protector or the like,

engine casingliavhaving side walls, and means for securing the pan in place.

2. In a motor oiler protector or the like, the combination with an engine casing having a portion extending downwardly lower than the remainder of the casing, a pan passing contiguously beneath the said portion of the casing, the said pan having a front Wall extending upwardly in front of and adjacent to the said downwardly extending portion of the casing, the said pan having side walls, an oil receptacle arranged upon the pan and having an oil gage, and means for securing the pan in place.

3. In a'motor oiler protector or the like, the combination with an engine casing,-of a pan arranged below the lowest portion of pan E by reason ing arranged accessible through the saidopening.

4. In a motor oiler protector or the like, the combination with an engine casing, of

a pan arranged below the casing, the saitl.

pan ha ing front and side walls and a rear wardly extending portion, an oil receptacle arranged upon the pan, an oil indicator connected with the said receptaole, the said easing havinga lower portion provided with a removable member, and the said pan having an opening the edge portions whereof are arranged between the said member and the said. casing whereby the pan is secured to the casing by the said member.

in a motor 'oiler protector or the like, the combination with an engine casing having an enlarged portion extending downwardly lower than the remainder of the casing, a pan passing contiguously beneath the said portion oi the casing, the said pan having a front wall extending upwardly in front of and adjacent to the said portion of the casing, the said pan having side walls corresponding in shape with and arranged next to the sides of the said portion of the ,xasing, and means for securing the said pan in place.

6. In a motor oiler protector or the like, the combination with anengine casing having a down 'ardly. projecting porti.on,.of a pan'arranged below the said downwardly projecting portion of the casing and extend.- ing to rear thereof, means for securing the pan in position with respect to the said downwardly projecting portion of the easing, and means passing upwardlyv through the pan and. into the said downwardly projecting portion of the casing for draining the casing. In testimony whereof I afiii: my signature.
